HOMES MAKE GOOD CITIZENS
To Own One's Own-Home Means Ac
quirement of a Certain Standing
in the Community.
"He's a home owner and n tnxpny- '
er." Is the best recommendation any |
man can have in his own community. I
It gives him a standing forthwith, not
so much as a person of some financial
Importance, hut as a dependable, substantial
aid self-respecting citizen,
wisely regardful of his own and his
family's happiness and best interests,
and at the same time an asset to the
neighborhood in which he lives. So
universal is the home-loving instinct
that It might almost be said there Is
something wrong morally with the man
or woman who does not care to own
a home; and that Is why the malcontents,
the habitual industrial disturbers
and the socially restive that inflict
themselves on all countries are of
the element that is very largely with- I
?^ i *>?
qui nuiue lies.
Unless all signs fall, this is to be
the ' great American home-building
year. Stimulated by the government's
urgent advice to "own a home for your
children's sake." and by the injunction
that during the war it was patriotic '
not to build, now we can best show !
our patriotism b/ building, there hus j
been a tremendous revival in the sentiment
for home ownership. The in- .
dicatlons are that the unhappy classes ,
of renters and boarders will be greatly
depleted before the end of 1919,
tnd that there will he many thousands
of additional families entered upon
the life of happiness and contentment
to be found only in the home.
The price of building materials today
is not high, as compared with
prices of other commodities, and the
community that does not add materially
to its total of homes this year
Is likely to be rated as lacking in patriotism
as well as good business Judg
ment.
GOOD USE FOR OLD WELL
Water in It Employed to Cool That
in Use in the Public Drinking
Fountain.
In many cities which have acquired
water systems, there are old wells
which have been abandoned and
closed. The Illustration shows how
one of these was used in a Western
city to cool the water used in a public
drinking fountain. The supply pipe ,
for the fountain,, instead of running
directly from the water main to the
base of the fountain, led first to the
coll pipe which was placed below the
water line in the old well. As the
drinking water flowed through the

turns of this coil, some of its heat was
radiated to the cold water in the well,
and, on emerging at the upper end of
the roil into the nine leadinc to the
fountain, it was several degrees cooler
than when leaving the water main.
The device is especially effective on
fountains of the type which are not
running continuously, but are turned
on by pressing a lever.?Popular Mechanics

Pale, weak, nervous people frequently
need iron to enrich their blood ana to restore
vitality to their system, and a good
way to supply the iron is to follow the
example of Mr. Clayton Wooten. ot Scotland,
Oa., who used Ziron Iron Tonic and
has this to say about it:
"1 have taken Ziron according to directions
and I can truthfully say tnat it is a
fine tonic. It has done me all the good.
Since 1 began taking it, I have gained eight
pounds in weight and enjoy eating three
